Take the tub, put it on springs and hook up a commercial paint agitator. You could clean 100,000 brass at a time.

Looks nice! My next big purchase will be a good long range scope, looking forward to your review.

We will do that ASAP.
I'm looking forward to getting the rig assembled and to actually using it. The .338L project has been the slowest thing to get off the ground! First there were years spent fretting about the right rifle, then the rifle sort'a fell on me. Next thing was that nobody in town stocks .338L, so wait while the on-line dealer digs some out and ships it. Meanwhile I'm trying to select an appropriate scope and mount, and again I lucked onto the article referenced by funfred. After that it was all fine tuning, do and done. Except for actually receiving the scope.
I had no clue that S&B had shipped the scope. I have been checking the vendor's site daily and all is says, even now, is "Order being fulfilled". No tracking number. No email. Nothing, nillo, zilch!
The scope was drop shipped by S&B in Claremont, NH yesterday by overnight UPS, so S&B gets four gold stars.

This morning my son and I packed the TRG-42 and the Sig MPX into the truck, and headed out to the range by way of a guy selling a table on Craigslist. We ended up buying the table and had to bring it back to the house so, long story short, we got a late start.
There was only one group of four people at Bodcau Range, and of course I knew them. So we shook hands, patted each others backs and, oogled equipment for 20 minutes. Then we got down to business.
We set the target at 100 yds, and started dialing the Vortex HS on the MPX in first. And spent about 30 rounds getting it to the bull (the dang thing wasn't even on the paper when we started!). Then we did a bit of fine tuning, got it to 1 inch around the bull, and turned to the TRG-42.
The Spuhr 4601 has 20.6 of MOA built in, so I dialed down 20.5 MOA and fired three rounds. My son then got one round off, and it was closing time, so we shut her down and headed to the house.
Using Hornady250 gr BTHP Match ammo (#8230) I shot the group of three at 2 right,1 low, and my son's shot is the one at 3.5 right, 1.5 low. The rifle and scope combo is the bee's knees as far as I am concerned. It just screams quality and good engineering. The bolt is silky smooth. The trigger has almost zero takeup, no creep, and a crisp letoff. It's almost as if you put your finger on the trigger, start to press, and the round is gone!

We're going to push out to 200 yds and do some more extensive testing next Friday. I'll keep y'all posted.
